Description

Jupiter
Christmas night, 2022-12-25.
Alt: 38°

Less than ideal seeing conditions and lots of light pollution, but was still able to bring out some detail!
Jupiter was 456,134,146 miles from earth when I took the photo. It took almost 41 minutes for light to travel from Jupiter to my camera. Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun, has 80 moons, and is large enough to fit about 1,300 Earths inside.

Setup:
5" SCT + 2x Barlow, ASI224MC @ ~2500mm f/20
iOptron mount, tracking: mount-only
FireCapture, shutter 13ms / gain 221 / histogram ~64%
20% best of 4k light frames
AS!3 + RegiStax6 + Lightroom
